just wanted to say hello and express my deep respect to everybody involved in keeping up running the modarchive and the #modarchive chat. I also like the way things evolved with the site redesign and restructuring. thumbs up for that.

Kinda miss all those one hour compos at midnight. *sigh* no time no time...

cheers,
Mike

That "guessed artist" tag in the song database is a pretty cool idea. How do I confirm a guess or post another guess?

IIRC, this is done with a table from modland.com so you can't control this as a user, but I'm not completely sure...

It is managed by a table that I created by parsing out modland's MD5 hash list text file. It was a major pain in the backside to do but worth it Artists that upload modules under their own login are also added to this list. But there are no plans to allow 3rd parties (users) to update this list due to security concerns and data integrity of such a critical list.

Oh boy... all my earliest S3Ms are there. How embarassing. The world would be better off if they had just been forgotten. So whats the deal, any chance of getting them removed?

[m0d]

there is a removal policy

hehe... well I could still build another S3M, not release it, and claim the released one was a rip off the unreleased one... and ripped by myself!

ok, bad idea.

Have you just gone and added these to your profile? Tell me you have not. 

[Gargoyle]

I did. You may laugh now. Please don't die in the meantime, we still want you around.
